CALGARY — Alberta’s landlocked bitumen reserves stand to lose their allure as China’s state-backed oil giants pour money into the light oil renaissance underway in pockets of the United States.
The boom in so-called tight oil attracted US$41-billion in capital investment last year and could reach US$72-billion by 2020, according to the American Petroleum Institute. The total rivals the $23-billion spent in the oil sands last year and may help coax hundreds of thousands of additional barrels of light oil from North Dakota’s Bakken field, the Eagle Ford play in Texas and California’s Monterey shale.

Former Conservative cabinet minister Jim Prentice says Canadians need to step up their efforts to maintain free and open energy markets for Canada’s oil, gas and electricity in the United States.

CALGARY - The Conservatives in Ottawa are staunch supporters, the New Democrats have called it a "win-win-win" and the premiers of Alberta and New Brunswick have loudly touted the benefits of an oil pipeline from west to east.
But the degree to which Eastern consumers will benefit at the pump is unclear, as it's up to the pipeline's customers — oil producers at one end and refineries at the other — to determine which barrels go where.

The National Energy Board says it has strengthened regulations for federally regulated oil and natural gas pipelines to make them safer for people and the environment.
The amended regulations that came into effect earlier this month require companies to do more to address safety, pipeline integrity, security, environmental protection and emergency management.

TOKYO - A U.N. nuclear watchdog team said Japan may need longer than the projected 40 years to decommission its tsunami-crippled nuclear plant and urged its operator to improve plant stability.

(Reuters) - U.S. stocks edged higher for a fifth day on Thursday, with the Dow hitting an intraday record for the third session in a row, as data pointed to a pick-up in the labor market recovery and investors looked for opportunities to buy into the recent rally.

(Reuters) - Household debt grew at its fastest pace since early 2008 in the fourth quarter last year, a possible sign that the painful process of paring back borrowing in the aftermath of the financial crisis may have run its course.
